Goonie’s World

Three travelers of the crystal spheres arrive in the eccentric city of Troika, looking for accommodations. They meet in the lavish hotel lobby of The Blancmange & Thistle, where they are informed that, due to the annual Feast of the Chiliarch being held on the rooftop, there is only one room left on the sixth floor. The travelers decide to share the room and attend the party. Getting there, however, proves to be more of a chore than anyone expected.

Flung into another dimension, Farin Bachknife-Origiabi, Nicholas Corso, and Marm Goodwill find themselves in Cape City, a technopolis of skyscrapers and cars in stark contrast to their own magical realm of castles and airships. Fending off police and superpowered vigilantes, the party searches for a way back to Gonen’s World.
 

Following the shock of finding an empty sarcophagus in Alexander’s lost tomb, the Top Men have an ultimate showdown with Belgian archaeologist Jan Donvil and his thugs. An even bigger shock occurs after the fight ends, when the team realizes there’s someone else with them they hadn’t accounted for. After a mad dash across the Nitrian Desert, Black Cavendish, Agent 13, and Mr. Smith complete their mission.

Pursued by police in Alexandria, the Top Men escape into underground Roman chambers, only to face off with armed tomb robbers. At the harbor, the team meets with a Greek named Athanasios who provides them with scuba gear. After a bloody shark encounter, the divers reach a tunnel leading to a water-free room where a certain sarcophagus lies waiting to reveal its secrets.  

The Top Men are intensely questioned after landing their stolen Soviet helicopter at a US airbase in West Germany, but are ultimately allowed to leave. Afterwards, the team boards a Greek steamer bound for Alexandria, but the ship is attacked in the night, and a furious gun battle erupts. In Egypt, Stew calls upon an old contact from his days at Yale.

On their way into Germany, the Top Men confront suspected spies aboard their train, but things don’t go as smoothly as planned, and they are rescued from the Stasi’s scrutiny by an unlikely passenger. Once in the town of Ludwigsfelde, the team plans and executes an infiltration into the castle of Baron von Papen, attempting to retrieve Alexander the Great’s breastplate.

After sneaking into the Basilica Cistern at night, the Top Men navigate the dimly lit underground chamber looking for the X that marks the spot on their map. Discovering a hidden room, they uncover their next clue, directing them towards the German consulate where important records are kept.     
 

In the 1950s, a shadowy unit of the US Government called the Top Men sends three of its agents on a quest to find the lost tomb of Alexander the Great. In competition with the Soviets, the team begins their mission in Istanbul where they are slated to meet a contact with intel on Alexander’s breastplate.    

Bing, Bart, and River are surprised when the three non-human entities they met in the darkened woods agree to answer their questions. However, there is a substantial catch. After their encounter, they head back to Fairbanks, satisfied they’ve achieved their goals. But before Bing and Bart leave Alaska, the whole team decides to drop in on their acquaintance Jarvis Easley. 
 

Having encountered a hostile Bigfoot while investigating the crashed pyramid UFO and its badly burnt occupants, the team tries to deescalate a dangerous situation. Following that, they land in the tiny village of Anaktuvuk Pass where the next day, they travel to the sight of the newly formed mound that River had spotted before.
